Ramen Shrimp Pouch

"Alton Brown's recipe for ramen noodles, shrimp, and veggies cooked in a neat little pouch. If you don't have time to devein shrimp, just buy them pre-shelled and deveined. Mirin is a sweet rice-wine used in Japanese cooking. It is similar to sake , but with a lower alcohol content and a high sugar content. Substitutes: I suppose sugar or corn syrup mixed with vinegar (preferably rice vinegar) or sake or sherry. Look up Weber's "Substitute Japanese Hon-Mirin" here on recipezaar!"

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a college student studying History at a University here in Portland. I live with my fiance and our adorable Rottweiler, Minnie. My oldest favorite cookbook is my moms ragged old copy of The Joy of Cooking; For its amusing illustrations and thoroughness. I especially like Mark Bittman's new revised How to Cook Everything as it is much less intimidating and more practical than Joy of Cooking. My very favorite cookbook of all is Pie by Ken Haedrich. While I adore baking, cooking is still a bit difficult for me. I have the worse time getting several dishes on the table at once while still hot. I'm known for my baked goods like brownies cakes and pies, and for my fantastic burritos which I have never written down a recipe for.
